Hi @saeed, You should set maxTotalDataSizeMB and frozenTimePeriodInSecs values. maxTotalDataSizeMB should be calculated based on daily ingestion raw GB using below formula; maxTotalDataSizeMB = DailyGB * 1024 * 180 / IndexerCount If your index is ingesting 100GB/day raw data. maxTotalDataSizeMB = 100 * 1024 * 180 / 3 maxTotalDataSizeMB = 6144000 frozenTimePeriodInSecs should be calculated based on retention days; frozenTimePeriodInSecs = 86400 * RetentionMonths * 30 frozenTimePeriodInSecs = 86400 * 6 * 30 frozenTimePeriodInSecs = 15552000 More info can be found in below link; https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/8.1.1/Indexer/Setaretirementandarchivingpolicy#Set_attributes_for_cold_to_frozen_rolling_behavior If this reply helps you an upvote is appreciated.
